Medical - Medical (general) / blood count
German term or phrase: CAGES (here)
Same Austrian reports.

Under blood count, electrolytes, they have Na, K, and CAGES. The entry reads as follows: 2.1 mmol/l 2.1-2.6

Any ideas??

I have never heard of any "cages" in the blood or serum, but I ordered "total calium" test quite often.

caged compounds?


Explanation:
Cage-Verbindung oder Käfigverbindung = caged compound (temporär inaktives Molekül, das durch UV-Blitzlicht in situ aktiviert wird)

Routledge German Dictionary of Biology

Another option would be that it is a massive typo and should be Ca i.e. Calcium which fits very nicely into the series of Na and K.
